CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

2020–2021 GSA-USGS

Congressional Science Fellowship

Application deadline: 15 Jan. 2020

Bring your science and technology expertise to Capitol Hill to work at the interface between
geoscience and public policy. The GSA-USGS Congressional Science Fellowship provides a rare
opportunity for a geoscientist to spend a year working for a member of Congress or congressional
committee. If you are a geoscientist with a broad scientific background, experience applying
scientific knowledge to societal challenges, and a passion for helping shape the future of the geo-
science profession, GSA and the USGS invite your application. The fellowship is open to GSA
members who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. A Ph.D. at the time of appointment or a
master’s degree in engineering plus five years of professional experience is required.
